Keep us posted! Can't wait!
Hope its about Kerry and 15 years to get Honorable Discharge. Release the 180 Damn it!
They should put some in Wisconsin as its probably the best chance to pick up a Gore state.
By the way, what movie does that video come from? It looks so familiar.
Just sent em another $50...what a privlidge it is to be able to support this group...
Telling Americans the truth about John F Kerry...
Not even the Mobile Riverine Force Assoc has the cajones to go after Kerry...out of fear of losing some of their contributors...
I have not heard of any of my 9th Div Associations going after him either...since he lied about many of us and our comrades whose names are written on the wall as well
I hope next summer when this is all behind us GW has a big picnic for these guys on the White House Lawn ....they will have earned that and much much more...
Thank you guys...from my family and myself and my nephews headed into the Marines the next couple of years....the active duty military is in grave danger from a Kerry presidency...you may have saved thousands of lives and helped to save as many souls
from what might have been had you guys not come forward and hung in there like Pit Bulls...
God Bless You All
Which national cable broadcasts?
Thea ads are usaully available on the Swift Boat Vets website.
The first ad is a 60-second spot featuring 90 swift boat veterans, in a a three-deep line, with the camera panning across the crowd - close-up and slowly. No vets speak, but the announcer delivers the following lines:
Announcer: They served their country with courage and distinction. They’re the men who served with John Kerry in Vietnam.
Announcer: They’re his entire chain of command, most of the officers in Kerry’s unit. Even the gunner from his own boat.
Announcer: And they’re the men who spent years in North Vietnamese prison camps.
Announcer: Tortured for refusing to confess what John Kerry accused them of. . . of being war criminals.
Announcer: They were also decorated. Many very highly. But they kept their medals.
Announcer: Today they are teachers, farmers, businessman, ministers, and community leaders. And of course, fathers and grandfathers.
Announcer: With nothing to gain for themselves, except the satisfaction that comes with telling the truth, they have come forward to talk about the John Kerry they know.
Announcer: Because to them honesty and character still matters. . . especially in a time of war.
Announcer: Swift Vets and POW’s for Truth are responsible for the content of this advertisement.
The second spot, also a 60-second ad, showing several groups (about 10) of swift boat veterans, one after another - with each group of vets featuring one single man posing a question to John Kerry. And the most important of all the vets involved delivers what I believe is a serious, serious, body blow.
John Edwards: If you have an questions about what John Kerry’s made of (echo on “made of”)...
Van Odell: Why do so many of us have serious questions?
Dr. Louis Letson: How did you get your purple heart when your commanding officer didn’t approve it?
Steve Gardner: Why have you repeatedly claimed you were illegally sent into Cambodia. . .
Bob Elder: . . . when it has been proven that you were not?
Jim Werner: How could you accuse us of being war criminals. . .
Ken Cordier: . . . and secretly meet with the enemy in Paris. . .
Mike Solhaug: . . . and promote the enemy’s position back home. . .
Paul Galanti: . . . when I was a POW, and Americans were being killed in combat.
Bud Day: How can you expect our sons and daughters to follow you, when you condemned their fathers and grandfathers?
Joe Ponder: Why is this relevant?
Tom Hanton: Because character and honesty matter. Especially in a time of war.
Rear Admiral Roy Hoffman: John Kerry cannot be trusted.
Announcer: Swift Boat Veterans for Truth is responsible for the content of this advertisement.

Re your post 4: "George and JFnK play Whack-a-Mole"
Anyone else just see the clip of "Stolen Honor" that they just played on Brit Hume's show?
And did anyone see that &%#*@^$ representing Kerry in response? He said Kerry served with honor, Bush is a My Pet Goat reading sissy, and Iraq is Vietnam. I was yelling at my television.
The details are: Major Garrett interviewed this Vietnam Vet representative of Kerry's campaign on Sept. 9, when Fox first prepared a story on the movie "Stolen Honor." I had not seen these comments before; I don't know if Fox has played them before today.
I think this guy's reaction to the movie makes me more angry than the content of the movie itself.
Saw it and I had same reaction - How can anyone call Kerry honorable for doing what he did? Wonder how much Kerry is paying that guy.
Then he says that is is BENEATH the dignity of a presidential candidate to answer these guys!
Saw it. They're in a "goad zone". Their strategy is to turn the heat up so high on this issue that it will turn off women and cause undecideds to tune out.
Sorry to say it, but it's always worked for Carville.
